Clark Kent investigates rumors of a possible breakout at Metropolis Jail, and overhears a crook claiming he will soon collect a million dollars because of something Superboy did on his last day in Smallville, when he is released on the next day. Superman reviews memories of his last days in Smallville, from his graduation from high school through his farewell to Lana Lang through Smallville's letting-go ceremony for him. Finally, he deduces that the prisoner is referring to bars of gold which have been painted with lead and disguised as cell doors on the new prison.
